Country Garden Roses. Is There A Rose With Your Name On It ? JOHN (John Hopper) (Shrub Rose) A compact Hybrid Perpetual, this variety has bright rose blooms edged in lilac. The large, cupped, double flowers have 70 petals each with a carmine centre; the outer petals fade with age. They appear on short stems, they are very fragrant and cover the shrub in summer; there is some autumn repeat. The 4ft (1.2m) stems create an erect and bushy plant, and are covered with large leaves and light red, hooked prickles. It should be dead headed to encourage autumn blooms. A very useful shrub rose as it makes a lovely specimen rose, and also makes a very effective and fragrant hedge. Bred by Robert Ward in the UK who named this rose after a good friend. JOHN (Old John) (Floribunda Rose) This beautiful vibrant and fiery orange red cluster flowered rose was named as a tribute to John Mattock, who has spent a lifetime in growing roses in the UK. Its blooms come in medium sized clusters of 5-10 and are shown off well against the dark green foliage. The golden yellow stamens give a value added effect when the blooms are fully open. A nice compact and desirable rose with a good long flowering period, good health and a lovely perfume. Bred by Dickson's of N.Ireland who have bred masses of beautiful roses over many years. A very popular rose which is due to its eye catching colour and its novel name. Dublin Certificate Of Merit. 1997. JOSEPH (Archiduc Joseph) (Shrub Rose) There has been much controversy over this rose as it has been incorrectly labelled as 'Monsieur Tillier' and vice versa as the two plants are very similar in appearance. The buds of 'Archiduc Joseph' are dark pink, opening lighter and then turning copper, with strong pink overtones as well. The thin stems with glossy foliage are sometimes not strong enough to hold the quartered bloom upright. Colours vary depending on the weather and the location. The petals become purple/orange in humid climates, but rose and pink in dry, hot weather, The stems are brownish red with dark ashy green leaves. Continuous flowering. A vigorous and unusual rose worth a place in any rose lovers garden. Scented. Named after Archduke Joseph of Austro-Hungary who was a scholar and agricultural reformer who was also a great plant collector. JOSEPH (Joseph’s Coat) (Shrub/Climbing Rose) Best described as a yellow and red blend . The blooms open out flat to reveal multi coloured blooms and lovely yellow/gold stamens. Repeat flowering and a dazzling show when in full bloom. Good disease resistance and will brighten up any garden. Possibly best grown as a climber. It is best suited to being layered out for the maximum amount of bloom. Flowers all summer but the best show is in the spring. Scented. AWARDS National Rose Society Trial Ground Certificate. Bagatelle Gold Medal JOSEPHINE (Hybrid Tea Rose) A fantastic new hybrid tea with enormous ruffled blooms of rich ruby red. The petals are huge (just one can cover a child’s palm) and hold their brilliance and form from beginning to end. The new foliage is quite distinctive and changes from reddish to green as the season unfolds. Josephine makes an impressive and conspicuous addition to any garden. The huge blooms repeat well, and with regular dead heading will keep repeating until the first frosts. Hardy and good disease resistance with a full fruity fragrance. Named for the international best selling author Josephine Cox who selected Dr Barnardos as the beneficiary of sales. www.countrygardenroses.co.uk 36
Country Garden Roses. Is There A Rose With Your Name On It ? JOSEPHINE (Josephine Bruce) (Hybrid Tea Rose) We have re-introduced this rose as we have had so many requests for it this season. Lovely dark red blooms which repeat well right through the season. It has a very strong fragrance which is possibly the reason for so many requests. Highly recommended for its colour but does need a bit of loving care and attention. Prone to a bit of mildew later in the season but that can be kept under control with spraying. JOSEPHINE (Empress Josephine) (Shrub Rose) The origin of this beautiful old rose is so shrouded in mystery that it has collected numerous names. It is also known as 'Souvenir de L'Imperatrice' 'The Frankfurt Rose'. and 'Francofurtana' It was named to honour Napoleon's first wife, who was really the patroness of old roses. The blooms are large and loosely shaped. Rich pink and veined with deeper shades. The foliage is course and greyish and fairly clean. Only summer flowering and followed by large hips. Very beautiful and excellent as a cut flower. It prefers the shade in warm areas and may need support. Shade tolerant and will cope with poor soils. Slightly scented. Royal Horticultural Society Award Of Garden Merit 1993 JOY (Mothers Joy) (Floribunda Rose) Masses of delicate soft pink blooms on this lovely new floribunda. Flowers throughout the season and well into the autumn. The blooms are huge and real show stoppers . Dead head regularly for the best results. Quite happy in the garden or a large container. Excellent disease resistance. With a name like this it is sure to prove very popular. Makes a lovely gift for Mum on any Special Occasion. A very beautiful rose with a superb perfume. JOY (My Joy) (Hybrid Tea Rose) This stunning hybrid tea has been around a while but is still as popular as ever in the exhibition world. My Joy has large exhibition quality blooms of fuschia pink with a silvery reverse. The perfectly formed blooms are nearly always borne one bloom to a stem. The long lasting flowers are supported on lengthy stems and a superb rose for cutting. Requires a warm spot and full sun to get the best show of blooms. Likes a bit of TLC so dead head regularly and feed twice a year and the results are well worth the extra effort. The large blooms are a real eye catcher in any garden plus the bonus of a pleasant perfume. Glossy dark green foliage. It was discovered by Len Wood, who was President of The National Rose Society from 1987-88 who was a keen exhibitor himself. He named this beautiful rose for his wife. JULIA (Julia’s Rose) (Hybrid Tear Rose) This is a most popular rose, no doubt because of its unusual colouring. The flowers are various shades of copper, parchment and brown, all mixed in to a handsome tone that intensifies dramatically in cool to cold conditions. There is also a slight hint of blue, which is not surprising as one of the parents are the ever popular 'Blue Moon' 'Julia's Rose' has a place in every collection although it is not the strongest of growers and needs plenty of TLC but the rewards are there if you make the extra effort. Flowers well for most of the season and has handsome reddish foliage, the combination being the flower arrangers dream. Not a strong perfume but very pleasant. Baden Baden Gold Medal 1983 Named after the famous flower arranger Julia Clements www.countrygardenroses.co.uk www.countrygardenroses.co.uk 37
